This is another function which doesn't work anymore since I have Windows 7 64 Bit: The option in the account setup which lets you define how often Pocomail checks if there is any mail waiting on the server (which was working perfectly well under Windows XP).
I had hoped that this would work again, as soon as Windows 7 knows about Pocomail - in vain... Or is this also something which could be repaired by editing the registry?
Sincerely, ente

Strange - because it is working fine on my Pocomail on Windows 7 64-bit.

So it does work.

I doubt a registry change would solve it since this is the type of information that Poco stores in its config file.

Can I suggest that you check that Poco's config file is not stored in the program folder where the program might not be able to write the config changes. Also check that having made the change and closed Poco, that when you open it again the change can still be made.

Good evening Robin,
thank you, I'll check this tomorrow morning, when I'm back at the office. If not in the program folder, where else has it to be - I just checked here my XP-installation, here is it in the program folder. Good, no good? Where is yours?
Thank you, ente

I am having the same problem using Win 7/64. My Pocomail folder is C:\User\<user>\Documents\Pocomail and my accounts.ini looks as you described above, yet it clearly is NOT checking and downloading email as I want.

Hello Robin,
I just realised that I didn't answer to this mail. Please excuse. I have exactly the same settings as you have (only CheckMailLast shows a different number) and the files and programs are exactly in the same directories. Only: There is no checking done when I don't clic on the check button.

Hello nkoss,
thank you for your mail. See mine of today to Robin... So let's hope that Poco5 will solve the problem. And that Poco5 isn't as far away as it has been until now...

Oh, Robin,
to make it even more frustrating: Under XT it works perfectly. Even so there I have check every .. minutes and timechecked active only for 1 of my three accounts.
So, being I an enduring optimist: with Poco5 this and all other problems will be gone...
